No doubt the engine and transmission are up to the task.

Thanks ,
Since you are excluding purchase price they have been similar.

I have driven both and prefer the Durango. Having said that, if our department could afford it, I'd switch almost all our vehicles over to the Tahoe.

I will say I love how the Durango drives but since we have 924 Dodge Chargers my personal concern is reliability. That said, our reliability issues have been with the Pentastar engines and frequent control arm replacements.
I can see the shifter causing some potential issues.
